A huge hug to that great man. He puts our leadership to shame with his fantastic energy. Once again this proves that one man the right man can change the world. This attitude of not waiting for someone but being the someone who can do great things is fantastic.

[roypruysvdhoeven]

VERY WELL DONE BURKINO FASO !!! PLEASE GO ON WITH TURNING THE DESERTS INTO GREEN LAND !!!👍👍👍👍

[crypton_l]

Yacouba Dawadogo deserves the Nobel Prize! Not obscure physicists or pharma scientists who have all the funding in the world!!

[leedza]

One of the few channels that has given credit where it's due. People don't understand how Yacouba's forest has been studied and created the blueprint for the green wall of Africa. He achieved what NGOs couldn't at the time with no outside help. Rest in peace.

[conormcmenemie]

Truly a wonderful success. Massive respect from Scotland for this venerable gentleman.

[LAT.MTL.]

WOW thoroughly impressed. YES one person can change the world!!! I’ll be researching more about Food Forests and the ancient technique of Zai farming technique! THANK YOU for the information.

[lindacarruthers]

This is so incredibly heartening. Can you imagine the deserts of the world in blooming again? And the climate there will change to livable, human and vegetation life sustaining. Wonderful, working with, instead of against nature .❤❤

[almiranteandres]

May god blessed this man, this is a great example of how just one person can make a huge diference in this

[wpgitchick]

What we forget is that trees play a huge role in the creation of rain clouds due to how they interact with the atmosphere. They don't just collect it and hold it t in their roots, they literally help to create it by how they "breathe".

[precisiont]

I am pleased to see the progress. Some humans are actually helping nature instead of just destroying it like usual.

[cath]

It's good to see the old methods being brought back to prevent the desert from spreading. Ethiopia, and other African countries which have been devastated by goats and bad farming could also benefit from this!

[NewerSwagger-gphj]

Rest In Peace, brave Yacouba. You ve done your part.

[vincentstark]

Incredible! It needs to be constantly scaled up throughout the Sahara. He needs to receive the Noble prize and get so much more support from the WHO, UN, and other organizations!

[girishn]

Amazing work fromAfrican nations, save earth, save African people lives Love and respect from INDIA 💕❤️💖💜

[yes]

So basically they grow food forest, but with very high diversity and using natural characteristics of the soil to capture more moisture. I think we would like to see a more detailed video on what they did and how it turned out. Fascinating

[campfireeverything]

I wonder if this technique could also be used in other desert areas like in Australia. Amazing video and information!

[svelanikolova]

Even though I don't live in the desert I am doing the same thing to hold water and plant trees. First I dig a hole water it and cover it with compost and grass. After 2 weeks I put the new rooted tree seedling in. Water then mulch again.

[Donman]

Wow, this is what I love. Human making positive impact

[GlobeHackers]

I'm from the US and have lived in seven countries over the past 35 years. I'd love to explore this domain in Portugal. We must move in this direction.

[kingranches]

This needs to be done all over the world. Especially in places like spain where large areas of once fertile land have turned into sahara like deserts. We in the USA have experienced years long droughts and parched land that cannot be expected to heal itself.leaving us with huge areas of potential deserts if something isn't done. I applaud this man's will to do something on his own and his belief that one man can make a difference for millions.
